On a serious note a quick prayer request. As some of you know Jodis Sister is terminally ill. No happy ending or recovery options, simply a matter of time. Jodi flew out this week to help with yet another surgery. Surgery went well but they took so much material out they cannot close the wound and she will get skin grafts to cover it. As a result she has a mechanical vacuum device covering the wound to ensure it stays clean. The stupid insurance company still will not respond to allow her to take the portable version of the device home while they wait to do the skin graft. She is getting phenomenal care at the hospital as a result of working there, she is the head pharmacist for the hospital. The insurance company is fighting with Drs and pathology lab to ensure margins were good on remaining tissue. At no point has the insurance exhibited any kind of concern for the patients well being. I am once again disgusted with our Insurance industry in this Country! Apologies for rant. Back to original request please give out some prayers for Sister Terri at the hospital in Oregon. Thx

Damn, Prayers sent. It doesn't sound like recovery is an option. I hope she is able to enjoy what life she has left.
 
Good morning, Friday fans almost 6am here. Souds like a busy time here in the coffee house prayers and thoughts out to @Sublime one and @dukeboy440. Looked back the past six days since we arrived over 100,000 steps 40 something miles worth lots of walking. Headed over this morning to the Sony Open a PGA event. We have two friends Gary Woodland and Sam Stevens both PGA professionals who're playing. We went last year and had a great time. The military is a big sponsor for this event free entry and a huge tent tables and chairs providing cold beverages and lunch grilled burgers, hot dogs, and chicken with all the fixings a great place to take a break. Have a great day!!

Morning

Woke up to the news that my father in law has passed away. We used to be as close as in-laws could be but the events from two years ago, we became estranged. By his own choosing. Wife is acting numb to it as she says she’s been dead in his mind since but I think it’ll hit her hard very soon.

So sorry for you guys. Hope it get better.

Is it me or is there far more coverage of the fires destroying the movie stars and also the promise of money than the storm damage of the East coast and the $750 given to them?

Not you, it’s being talks about everywhere by everyone for that same reason

Well I am trying desperately to keep the fresh spayed one down but they love the snow. It makes them crazy playfull. I even barricaded the door to the kennel to keep them inside. They have their own door that leads out to a 25 ft by sixty ft enclosure. They worked together to move the barricade out of the way. After watching them work so hard together to move the barricade I just let them go. Doctors orders, no running and short leash walks only. The pup starts her day, everyday with a four mile run. I tried to explain to the vet she was a working dog but he was not listening. I am doing my best to keep her throttled down, Benadryl is my next step. Shepards are Shepherds, the breed is oblivious to discomfort and focus on task at hand period, no deviation. They are the epitome of “Ride or Die”

Brother/Cousin, it agree on the insurance companies, they talk a big game at the beginning and drag use threw hot coles to get taken care of, there needs to be a change.
Prayers for strength and wisdom to the doctors,nurses and staff to get the insurance and care she needs to her, i need to burn some sage today and give thanks for this beuityful day my family is enjoying and to keep them safe, and for her .

Sorry for your loss,Chris.
 
I must mention how grateful i am for my friends here in the Coffee Shop. Going back to the gift card you sent last year, the few times we tried to go for dinner, they were closed or had a function going on. We passed the card along to my Daughter and explained where it came from and why. Christin took her new boyfriend, and they had an awesome meal, with enough left over to go a couple more times. I figured she was living in the city, and could go anytime. And i know she gets a few good meals. She tries hard, but its not easy to find a good paying job in the graphic arts industry. And again, Thanks to all my friends.
 
Engine almost fits, just a little more work to clear manifolds. Air intake may be an issue, we will overcome that part when the time comes.

Just got back from helping to fight a barn fire. My neighbor lady lost her Husband to a blood clot the day before Thanksgiving. He had a valve replacement in his heart and they sent him home because he was doing so well. Sitting on the couch watching TV he died. That was Thanksgiving. today her barn burned down. an Emu was sick and her son put a heat lamp in for it and the Emu must have knocked it over into the straw. Total loss plus a brand new forRunner, a camper bought last summer. a newer truck and a couple side by sides and a boat. everything was close to the barn and it is thick with pine trees but not anymore. I went over with my little tractor and got there when the fire companies did. She was at work and her 2 sons were in school. She is really feeling lost.

Sorry to hear. Hopefully all insured and they pay up without a runaround.
I lost a friend New Years Eve... John was 84 and had also recently had heart valve replacement. Had some initial complications, but seemed to be doing very well for a few weeks. I didn’t get all the details, but he was back in the hospital when he passed.
 
Smokey The Bear turned 80 last week.
Only You can prevent Forest Fires.
Sad that the department that started and put out that message all these years couldn't follow it.
